Hi all. Was riding on some extremely rough Michigan roads when my dash started going crazy. Got to my destination and later went to restart and the bike was totally dead. I was able to track down the blown 30 amp main fuse that previous owner had replaced the dogbone with. I replaced it and the bike started right up. Rode it home with no issues. Next morning totally dead again but the fuse was fine. Today I pulled the poorly installed aftermarket radio to see if there was a connection issue. Yep. The blue pin connector was disconnected. I am no mechanic and my wife says I'm blind but I just can't find where it plugs into. Do I need to open up the fairing? Can someone post a pic of where it goes? Thanks!

That would be the one! Sadly in other words that doesn't fix the no electrical power issue. The battery is good, the dogbone replacement fuse is good. I don't believe it would be the stator but what else would it be?

Hey everyone, haven't had time to get back to the topic and the bike needs to be put away before the four letter S word arrives. There are zero signs of power even with a charged battery. No dash or ignition. If somebody out there has had the same problem please let me know! I can' afford to take it in and rack up lots of bucks trying to track down the gremlins nor am I mechanical enough to tear it apart and look. Any help would be super appreciated. Thanks!

Hi yep I've had those symtoms dash going crazy etc and stopping it was burnt wiring shorting out around the connections on the top of the starter soliniod one of the wires red/white I think goes straight the rectifier and there is no way it will start if this wire is shorting.

Check for burnt connections at the rectifier and the three yellow stator wires

It runs! I'm embarrassed to say that the 30 amp blade was for accessories and did not replace the dogbone. It was definitely original and crumbled as did the spare. Went to my Honda dealer and $2 later the dash lit up and bike was running. Will switch it over in the future. Thanks!
